I have a hunch:

Please try the latest snapshot DLL from http://cygwin.com/snhapshots/

The above crash looks like it might be a wrongly catched exception in
one of the Windows DLLs.  If so, this would be a result of a glitch in
the 64 bit exception handling, which should be fixed in the latest
snapshots.
